    You know what, aside from Spyders, I'm usually excited to see just about any new gun for the first time (whether they are flashy electropenumatics, or simpley antiques).

      Evolution of a recplayer.

      I guess that is a strange sounding thing. I love speed ball, but I guess that my roots are in the woods. That and like I said before, these high end guns look like carbon copies of one another. If you have seen one Timmie, you have seen them all, and they all basically preform the same. I mean c'mon is there that much of a difference between 18 bps and 23 bps in the middle of a game? Is it more of an accomplishment to attain 20+ bps in a tourney or to use that old school marker and do well against the tourney guys?

      I guess my main gripe is that you see less and less things that make guns interesting. Yeah, I'll admit that they look cool, and some really nice; but I just don't see them as interesting. It's like standing in a parking lot and watching some guy ride up in a new Mustang, and then seeing a guy roll up in an old Shelby Mustang. Now which one is going to make you walk over and take notice?

      And, I'm not saying anything bad about any gun. So, don't flame me saying that I pick on the high-ended guns, I'm not. In fact I hope to buy an X-Mag with my re-enlistment bonus. But, before that I'm thinking of a VSC phantom or a verticle feed PPS Blazer (I love the look of the Blazer)

        WOW!!!

        A guy I play with found an original Sniper I at a pawnshop... paid $50 for it...

        He brought it by the WGP booth at the last D-Day, they straight up traded him a 03 vert feed for it. I thought it was a great deal, now just wait until I tell him what he COULD have got for it (I don't remember what the serial number was, just that it was really low)
        Hey Zero, how much did that Chipley cost ya?

          I love to have a gun that is different. Hell, when I get the cash to start this project the no battery pack, space frame, x-ma will be different too. Id give it a good 3-4 month before I get around to doing that though. I have a gun to market first, and a tank design that should absolutely blow anything out there away by a long shot.

          Anyway, I would kill for a SMG-68. I was even thinking of having a run made if I could get some people together.

            Maybe we have just gone "full circle" and the notion "no best gun" comes into mind. True ballers!

                I agree totally. I love it when people start to notice this as well. I am currently aquiring a mini-cocker, because about a year ago I saw one at my 'local' (1 1/2 hour drive away) field and thought it was soooooo cool. I mean an original mini cocker, before all of this cnc stuff. Although later I might mill it *hehe*, but before hand I would buy another body to kkeep the 'sleeper' principle in tact. That is my favorite style of all time. Sleeper. no flashy anything, just pure power. Like back in the 50's when people had enough money to either make a car look good, or make a car go fast, but not both. which do you think I would do?

                P.S. Not that I am old enough to remember the 50's. Or the 60's or 70's or 80's. just to let yall know.

                  Before I leave this earth I would love to test out one of those ATS-85's. Ive always thought of those as very interesting and innovative. I thought this since the 1st day I layed my eyes upon the marker and even still to this day consider their design as a curiously strong marker. Other than that... probably one of those gatling gun paintball markers that tippmann makes ...Oh, I would need a dune buggy too

                        My AT-4 draws SOOOOooooo much attention.
                        Unfortunately, most think it is some type of armotech gun.....

                        All too often I end up giving a "demonstration" or pointing out its salient features instead of tending to business (like buying paint or getting air).
